Colleen & Keegan || Engagement Photography || Medina Public Square, Ohio

A recurring theme during most engagement or wedding portrait sessions is that couples will usually say something like "We don't know what we're doing". And to that we always say, "That's perfect! Just enjoy the time together and be yourselves. We'll coach you when needed." Then after a few pointers and several minutes we show a preview to the couple while shooting which generally is met with a "Wow. Is that me? I didn't know I could look like that." To all future and past couples, here's the soapbox for this post… you do look like that! You're fun, in love, beautiful and you look great together. We just happened to take the right photo, at the right time, at the right angle that captured you in the best possible way in that moment. Don't worry. Relax. And just keep swimming. 

Now onto our next models who never thought they would be models, Colleen & Keegan. We enjoyed a fabulous afternoon with these two in Medina Public Square a few weeks ago. All we can say is shazam! Look at these two. Colleen is a totally gorgeous lady and Keegan is a total All-American guy. We've been so excited to share these, so here they are…



So do we need to say again how cute these two are? 





Here's an all-time favorite ring shot...


We couldn't choose between these photos, so you get to see both. :o)



Who says a busy street can't be romantic. Love this one!



The above picture = proof that Keegan is one lucky dog...

And yet again, another blog post with two ring shots. Couldn't resist.


Another favorite from the day...

And us doing what we love… which obviously involves a lot of bending and lying horizontally.



You know it will be a good photo when there's a smile behind the lens...


Colleen & Keegan, you guys rocked it and we can't wait to photograph you two again this summer. Hope you enjoy the photos because we loved taking them!

Gretchen & Michael || Engagement Photography || Akron, Ohio

We have a fun couple for you this week. You'll quickly realize that Gretchen & Michael had a very difficult time not smiling during their engagement session, which is how it should be! Gretchen's smile and easy-giggle-potential was contagious and we all had a great time together in a beautiful location with perfect spring sunshine. No more intro needed. Onto the good times…

SO excited to see some green back in the trees after this winter...



Like we said, it was an afternoon of giggles and fun...



Every now and then we went for the serious look… which lasted about 10-15 seconds. 


Note to future couples, if you wear cute shoes, we're more likely to photograph them. :o)





No, the rainbow starburst was not added in post.

FAVORITE. Love this one of you two! This picture says everything about your session.


Had to add a second ring shot because we couldn't decide between the two.


And just a few of us loving our life…

This is the great thing about two photographers... One close. One far. Two imaginations.


The view from the ground during a low shot...

We can't begin to explain how much fun we had with you guys. Can't wait for your wedding this summer. Thanks for making our job such a pleasure. We enjoyed the post-session trip to Starbucks with you too. ;o) Hope you enjoy the photos! See you in a few months.
